BioShock Infinite VGA Graphics Benchmark performance test

In this review slash article we'll look at BioShock Infinite VGA Graphics benchmark performance with roughly 20 graphics cards. The new and popular title is interesting from a graphics point of view. What do you need really? As a result, how will it perform on a selection of different graphics cards? This review will cover all these basics and then more so you know what choice to make either graphics card or in-game settings wise.

At 1080, i've seen 1.9gb vram being used on early level without any AA enabled, i wonder if i did inject some AA if the same place in-game would use more vram pushing it over the 2gb zone.
Excellent work HH!

Strange they are seeing something odd going on with AMD or the drivers and yet the only rig I am getting any stutter problem in is my rig with SLI GTX 670's! I have two other rigs one with a Crossfire Sapphire HD 7950 and another with a Sapphire HD 7970 neither have any problems at all.

Anyway, great review, thanks for including the new analysis for us. Even if Fraps is not the best tool for an accurate analysis, it's still better than nothing. I just installed GPUView (installer is included in the Microsoft Win 7 SDK)... it's not exactly user friendly... yeaaahhh... I'm too lazy to learn how to use that.

wait wait wait , what the heck is this u wanna tell me nvdia gpu's run better in this game lol even the gtx 650 ti is better then the hd 7870 and the hd 7970 ghz defeated by gtx 680 i think u have something wrong with your bench ore perhaps guru3d are highly payed from nvidia ore what ?
check this http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/bioshock-infinite-test-gpu.htmlall the bench show amd gpu's are so strong in this game perhaps when DDOF are used nvidia show nice performance and gtx 680 are at the same performance of 7970 ghz but when i compare your bench with this one there is allot of difference a really a big difference , i know every bench is different (hardware scene etc .. ) but this .... , u need to check again your review

Nvidia is not paying Hilbert. It's far more likely that no name bench site is the one being paid for. These are the results, whether you like them or not.

I've just compared the 25x16 Ultra Quality with DDOF FXAA performance from us with theirs, and there is very little difference. You are confused, the GTX 650 Ti you refer to is the yesterday released BOOST edition, as clearly marked in the charts. Not the regular Ti one.

BTW, the next guy that claims we are BIAS to either AMD or NVIDIA, insinuate that we get paid for these reviews will get banned. I'm not joking, I spend a lot of time and work on these articles and do not wish or deserve to be insulted.

There will always be a majority or perhaps minority that understands and has already read your written benching philosophy.

If people don't know how to interpret data they can always go elsewhere.

emmmmm okey i believe so but what i see here is a different story look at the gamegpu bench so how can u explain the big difference ? i mean yeah from different hardware and other stuff but i believe the mechanism of the bench are the same as the game have his own bench tool so how i can believe those information ore also if someone ask me are this game a flavor nvidia ore amd (yep some gpu's fanboys ) what is the good answer ? but any way i didn't say he did bad thing just to recheck again and try other settings to see if he ll have the same performance in both nvidia amd !

ps: gamegpu is not a noname site all the bench there are true i did tested allot of latest games with both nvidia /amd , and i can tall u all of those information are true perhaps cpu side I'm not sure bur gpu thing all the information there are true and u can tested by ur self

sorry if u take that like an insult i didn't mean it sorry again
and yeah i also review games like u do in my country for my friend and yep a really allot of work to do when it's come to review games with thios gpu's just the things that i was afraid of is some problem with the drivers ore other things that give u thoseinformation but don't get me wrong i love when people do this kind of work and i just wanted to make a point of what is going on while comparing the same review with other not wanna put u in any bad situation .
your doing a great job and keep it up

Shameless nvidia is cheating in new drivers... They lowered the compute shader precission to FP16, AMD uses FP64, so NV has 4x times worse quality, this is the reason of performance boost in Tomb Raider and Bioshock.

LOL that guy you linked to is an idiot. That was posted in another thread on these forums and it was quickly debunked.

oh and by the way I think its deserved....

THANK YOU & KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK HILBERT!!!

So what does this means?Nvidia has better performance in the last games but with worst IQ?

Is this true?

Says the guy with 2 posts, same day join date?

Honestly though the game runs super smooth, even runs on my APU powered laptop lol surprisingly. Just hooked on my 360 controller and feels like a console hah.
